[00:00.00]Creole Girl - Allan Taylor
[00:55.96]Call it a journey of memories
[01:02.13]A journey to bring back the time
[01:07.99]Through those days of wild abandon
[01:14.69]When a young man was in his prime
[01:21.21]Call it a hopeless fantasy
[01:26.98]Trying to capture some long lost dreams
[01:33.07]When you fell for the dark eyed Creole girl
[01:40.02]Who came from New Orleans
[01:49.84]Take in the Latin Quarter
[01:55.97]The search for a familiar name
[02:02.41]But Paris has changed since you left her
[02:08.94]And nothing much looks the same
[02:15.12]Fifi's cafe is now a strip club
[02:20.83]With the Arabian Dancing Queens
[02:27.12]But not one can compare with the Creole girl
[02:33.99]Who came from New Orleans
[02:43.47]Perhaps it was too much to wish for
[02:49.84]Sometimes it's best to move on
[02:56.40]But just for the sake of memories
[03:02.00]I'll take a drink for the days long gone
[03:08.29]And I went into the Cafe Chanson
[03:14.63]And watched the world from tobacco stained screens
[03:21.06]And I thought of the dark eyed Creole girl
[03:27.31]Who came from New Orleans
[04:02.08]"Bonsoir monsieur" said the waitress
[04:08.67]"And what can I get for you"
[04:14.49]I said"Excuse me for asking this question
[04:20.81]But you remind me of someone I knew"
[04:27.42]She laughed as if I was crazy
[04:33.39]This young girl just out of her teens
[04:39.67]But she looked like the dark eyed Creole girl
[04:46.44]Who came from New Orleans
[04:55.86]I stayed 'til the bar had emptied
[05:02.10]And we shared a bottle of wine
[05:07.83]I said"I'm just trying to capture a memory
[05:14.68]Of love in a different time"
[05:19.99]She said"Maybe you think of my mother
[05:26.52]We look so much alike it seems
[05:32.56]She was known as the dark eyed Creole girl
[05:39.12]Who came from New Orleans"
[05:57.89]How I loved the dark eyed Creole girl
[06:04.41]Who came from New Orleans
